Okay, you are so going to thank me for this.
As we’re all making resolutions and words for the new year, losing weight and eating healthier always seem to top the list. For me, the hardest part is cutting down on sweets. But I’ve learned I can make it through the day if I know I have a great snack to look forward to, and Yoplait Light just made that so much easier.
Just look at these flavors! Boston Cream Pie! Strawberry Shortcake! Orange Creme! Raspberry Cheesecake! Boston Cream Pie! (Okay, I have a chocolate obsession.)
There are actually more than 20 different flavors but I bought those because they sounded the most dessert-y to me.
To make them even more dessert-y, I checked out Yoplait Yogurt’s 150 Calorie Snack Hacks board on Pinterest, which you should definitely follow because it has some amazing ideas, like that Chocolate Grasshopper Yogurt in the top picture. You just add 1/4 teaspoon Creme de Menthe to the Yoplait Light Boston Cream Pie and sprinkle with cocoa. AND IT’S ONLY 150 CALORIES!
Because I don’t always have extra ingredients in my house, I also found this brilliant idea to make frozen yogurt pops. So I took a Strawberry Shortcake Yoplait Light, turned it upside down, used a knife to cut out what used to be the bottom of the container, stuck a piece of foil on it and inserted a craft stick.
After a few hours in the freezer, voila!
It was so easy and tasted so refreshing, I now have a freezer full of them. They fill me up, are super satisfying and, because they are just pure Yoplait Light, they are only 90 calories apiece! What they don’t have is fat or aspartame — which is a win win.
I’m heading back to the grocery store this afternoon because I want to try the White Russian Yogurt Cup and the Double Chocolate-Dipped Strawberry Yogurt Cup.
I’ve decided I’m going to treat myself to one Yoplait Light 150 Calorie Snack Hack every day as my dessert to look forward to. And I bet that’s one resolution I will easily keep. 
Ok, that IS pretty clever. I am going to make those for my boys.
What a great trick. It’s the perfect way to trick my kiddos into eating more yogurt.
I agree, so easy! My kids would love this! Perfect for up and coming summer months !
These are amazing. You can’t imagine how full my fridge is with Yoplait since hubby craves them as a treat. Great ideas!s
I will definitely buy these because I am also .. ahem .. dieting and looking for healthy dessert. alternatives. Can I just say that seeing you with a yogurt pop BY THE POOL is making me cry? It’s a frozen tundra here. And I have to take the dog out.
It’s zero here. With a windchill of -23. Ouch.
I’m sorry Helene beat me to the punch. As I stare out my window at the freezing cold leaves tightly curled up from the frigid temps and snow on the ground your pool photo made me crazy! Happy for you but crazy.
Anyway I’d love to try these. They sound so delicious and wonderful for losing weight. Thanks!
I love these Yoplait yogurts! I have them for breakfast all the time.
Super idea — though far too chilly for Colorado dwellers!
I just printed my own Yoplait list and can’t wait to pick them up tomorrow. I plan on eating the low-calorie goodness, as well. (And I smile to see you are once again on the same path I am.) 😀
Oooohhh, I love the popsicle idea. BRILLIANT!! Yup, picking up a few next time I’m at the market!
lucky you that you can enjoy a cold popsicle in January. I still love ice cream but it just makes me colder this time of year. making these for the kids,
we love yoplait and I like the frozen pop idea. Perfect for when summer is here and you want a cold snack.
yoplait has always been one of my go-to yogurts!
The pops look so good. I’m determined to eat more yogurt this year. It’s lean protein and fills me up. This could be a fun way.
That is definitely a resolution I can stick to. (Pun intended 😛 )
Yogurt pops is a great idea. I will try that right now. Got some in fridge.
I love yogurt. It can be such a great snack.
Yogurt pops! Who woulda thunk it? I gotta do this!
That is a great idea. All of those dessert flavors are SOOOO good.
The pops are a great idea! I will definitely be making me some pops!
OMG, I never thought about freezing them. What a clever idea.
No Aspartame? Hurrah! I would try these. I just hope i can get the bottom of the container off easily. 🙂
Very clever. I also love the white Russian idea on their Pinterest board! Thanks Lois.
That is a really clever idea. I think I will have to stock up on these for cold treats for the kids this summer.
I love the frozen yogurt pop idea. I haven’t tried that yet and if I can ever find some room in my freezer, I’m on it! My kids love yogurt!
This is a great idea! My kids love Popsicle’s and yogurt – why not give them the best of both worlds! Thanks
This is such a great idea and healthy snack! I often use Yoplait yogurt in my son’s smoothies.
Ah that’s so perfect. I’ll have to pick up some Yoplait Light next time I go to the store!
I LOVE this! I keep a ton of Yoplait Light in my fridge at all times. It’s delicious, and it’s aspartame-free.
That looks good. I like to eat Chobani Greek Yogurt if I’m going to have yogurt but the cup isn’t nearly the right shape. LOL
Love the pop idea! Great way to get some extra nutrition inside my boys!
I can’t believe how easy that is! And I bet it’s delish!
That is OUR go to pool snack … also, frozen green and red grapes on sticks tend to be a big hit too.
My kids love this brand yogurt, what a clever idea to turn it upside down for a Popsicle – yum!
Yoplait popsicle?! How awesome! I love that hack, haha!
What a great idea as an alternative to “traditional” desserts! Thanks for sharing – I’ll definitely be giving this a try! 🙂
We love yo plait…. My hubby can’t live
Without them….. I like them too, cherry.
What a brilliant idea! I will use this in the summer for sure!
We enjoy Yoplait yogurt and loving the calorie count. Need to try freezing them. cool idea.
I cannot wait to try Boston Cream Pie! I like your frozen idea and WOW am I jealous of that pool :).
I was already a big fan of Yoplait Yogurt but this gives me an even bigger reason to be in love with them! It is that time of the month to stock up on groceries and I will definitely be adding this to the list!
We LOVE Yoplait in our house! Never thought about making frozen yogurt pops. Thanks for the great idea!
Oooo I want to do your yogurt pop idea! I eat yogurt every day for breakfast, but I love this for a snack idea.
WOW what a great idea! Those look so yummy! I bet your kids love them too! The flavors sound so good. Will have to pick some up when we go shopping again!
I saw that trick last year and gave it a try. Worked out pretty good. I love the Boston Cream Pie yoplait flavor. Its my go-to for years.
Now that looks very delicious and so easy to do. I would love those especially in the summer months. I would have no problem eating if right from the fridge year round.
Mmm, these will be a great treat! Perfect for summer.
Boston cream pie! I’d go for that one, too! I love the idea of freezing the yogurt into pops. I usually do that when I have a big box full and the expiration date is getting close… 😉
I have never thought about just freezing yogurt in the cup. That’s an awesome idea!
mmmm… Yogurt popsicles are some of my favourite summer snacks! And Boston Cream Pie flavour? That sounds delicious.
I’ve loved Yoplait yogurt since I was a kid. It still tastes great now that I am an adult.
Sounds delicious, love the frozen pop idea, thanks!
If I come by right now, will you sit outside with me by your pool and we could eat yogurt together. OK?
Love them but I’ll save the frozen snack for a few months.. it’s a little too chilly for me and frozen desserts right now!
We love yoplait at our house! it is a staple! Totally turning them into popsicles now – brilliant!
Ok I am loving the idea of turning them into pops, that is such a cool idea for the summer, I am going to have to give it a whirl. x
I am a big fan of yoplait. their yogurt flavors are by far the best; I love how creative they get with it!
